[Q] HELP - I have a messed Up Galaxy Note SGH-i717 - General Questions and Answers

HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I recently bought used i717 on Ebay. It is supposed to be unlocked but have not been able to confirm as the standard code does not work. Have not been able to root as superoneclick does not work. Finally got it to connect to Kies but Kies states latest ROM is installed.
When I go to Settings >>> About Phone - Model Number is Samsung SGH-i717, Android Version 2.3.6, Baseband Version T989UVKL1, Kernel version 2.6.35.11, Build number Gingerbread.UCLA1
When I boot up the ATT logo stuff is displayed and there was a bunch of ATT bloatware apps installed, most of which I deleted as I do not use ATT
Don't remember where I was but on one web site about upgrading stated that baseband version should be I717UCLA1, I717UCLF6, or I717UCMB4 before updatingand that It will be I717UCMD3 after the update.
I have discovered that the Baseband Version T989UVKL1 is for an SGH-T989, T-Mobile Samsung Galasy S II, which is probably the reason it won't update through Kies.
I want to upgrade to Jelly Bean 4.1.2.
Have considered Cyangenomod but afraid that with the non-ATT baseband I might brick it.
Any help will be greatly appreciated. I am new to this and it has been very confusing so far.

Samsung Galaxy S & Rooting

Hello All, I'm brand new to this forums so i apologise if this has already been asked & answered.
Currently running a Telstra version,
Froyo 2.2
Model NUmber : GT-I9000T
Firmware Version : 2.2
Baseband: I9000TDVJP9
Build : Froyo.DVJp8
it's becoming laggy, and the internet's slow.
Is there a way to install Honeycomb, or a newer software version?
Ive never rooted, or modded? an easy way?

[Q] Is the Samsung Reverb rootable?

More than likely I'm jumping the gun here, but I was curious if anyone has experience rooting the Reverb (on VM)? And perhaps point me in a direction if so? I've been sweeping google but the vast majority of the results are related to the freshness of its release. Be gentle, my last 'smartphone' was an LG Dare with no internet access (lol don't ask). I'm a long time computer geek, but a virgin cell rooter on virgin mobile.
Thanks for your time!

I havent found anything yet...
neither here.....kinda been thinking it could be based off one of the galaxys s plus roots or 9070 roots?
Not sure if anyone here knows yet probably do but just in case here is the video on rooting the Reverb.
How to Root The Galaxy Reverb - Virgin Mobile
I have a newer Samsung Galaxy Reverb SPH-M950 Virgin Mobile that came with JB 4.1.2 pre-installed.
NONE of the Reverb Roots for JB are working.
I tried reverb-cwm-test-8 and cwm-touch-iconvmu-signed(cwm6030) for the Reverb with no success. I tried different versions of TWRP made for other Samsung phones, with different results, but still no success.
Odin3v304 does flash the recovery successfully, but the previous CWM's made for the older ICS based Reverbs do not boot when i finally get into Recovery mode with the OutOfBox 4.1.2 Reverbs.
Something has changed with the JB 4.1.2 pre-installed Reverbs that is not allowing the commonly know JB roots via Odin.
I really just want to put an older ICS build on this phone because of the TouchScreenLock issues it has with any JB build...
Anyone had success with newer Samsung Galaxy Reverb SPH-M950 Virgin Mobile that came with JB 4.1.2 pre-installed?
I notice the Kernel Version is dated April 30 of this year...hint?
NOTE: I have not Activated the phone yet (not sure that makes a difference)

[Q] Stock Firmware For Strait Talk's Samsing Galaxy SII Model (SGH-S959G)

Is there any Stock Firmware And Kernels Out there yet For Strait Talk's Released Samsung Galaxy SII Model (SGH-S959G) yet? I'm rooted with the At&t root and can't flash Custom Recovery.:silly: and Looking for the stock firmware and kernel to flash to completely stock to be able to re-root for this exact model the SGH-S959G. It's only been released since late August so I'm sure there's got to be something in the works now or soon since it's still pretty new. If there is any info on this or where I could find the Original Android Development for this model would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
I posted something similar to this a week or 2 ago figured id give it another shot to see if there is any updated info.

[Q] Samsung Galaxy s3 sprint wont let me update to jellybean

I bought a new samsung galaxy s3 on sprint and it came stock with ICS. I then went on to root and update to a jellybean rom that wasn't the official one. Then sprint released an over the air update to go to jellybean, so i wanted tthe official sprint version. I tried several things from unrooting an restoring to trying to download the old firmware and not only will it not work when i try to download the firmware but now i cant even download the hacked firmware back ? i have no clue what to do its extremly frustrating . Does anyone know what to do ??

[Q] Stock firmware needed

Hi guys, I really need some help.
A few months ago my work gave me a Tab 2 10.1 to help me do my job. Since then I rooted it (testing how Mobile Device Management would work with it rooted).
Since then an update came out which I could not install as "Your Device has been Modified"
Last night I tried to install some stock firmware which has now changed my baseband and downgraded the Tab from 4.1.1 to 4.0.4
The original baseband version was P5100BUCLJ1 and is now P5100XXLE4
The kernel was 3.0.31-607512 and is now 3.0.8-654505-user
I am unable to update my Tab as it says there is no updates available (no longer saying modified)
Does anyone have the Stock Rom/Firmware for this model? Its the UK Version and is open to any network.
Any help will be greatly appreciated and desperately needed.
Thanks
Anyone??
Anyone have any ideas? My Tab is working but thinks its branded as O2
